A Population Based Incremental Learning for Network Coding Resources Minimization
Huanlai Xing, Rong Hai Qu · IEEE Communications Letters · 2011
In network coding based multicast, coding operations need to be minimized as they consume computational resources and increase data processing complexity at corresponding nodes in the network. To address the problem, we develop a population based incremental learning algorithm which shows to outperform existing algorithms in terms of both the solution obtained and computational time consumed on networks with various features.
